Editor’s Pick: Salomon Spikecross 3 CS, $160

Caution, giving this gift may deprive the donee of excuses not to run. The Spikecross ($160), thanks to an aggressive outsole rubber outfitted with embedded carbide and tungsten spikes and an upper that features a moisture-repelling yet breathable Climashield layer, is run ready, regardless of the trail conditions. Kiss the treadmill goodbye!
